The Quest

"In the turbulent 1960s, a young Greek-Romanian longs to escape the iron grip of communism and connect with his roots on the island of Crete. Fascinated since childhood by his grandfather's tales of Greek heroism, Pericles sets out on a dangerous quest to return to his homeland. Can he evade the authorities, survive the dangers of the road, and make it safely - alone and on foot - through the dark realities of Cold War Eastern Europe to the warmth and freedom of his Aegean island paradise?"--
